A single dot is too little for thermal paste. You might want recheck that. Good job for a first time though

[@mond33zy]

It did run a little warm at first and I had since rechecked it and now its smooth. I appreciate that input!

[@aakudev]

Just check the die distribution on the chip, paste should cover all those places well.

[@mond33zy]

As I hoped it would be! I wanted to try as best I could with as little as possible and leave room for easy upgrades later on. It really runs great.

[@RamiTestsGames]

I still think that RX6600 is best for 1080p gaming. It is the most power efficient (to performance it offers) graphics card to have ever been made running at 100W. Best budget king IMO.

500w 80+ bronze is enough?

It's a great combo for sure! One of the best

[@englishboy993]

What psu did you use?

[@keylime6]

@@englishboy993 I made the mistake of only getting 500W psu, I thought I might as well save some money but the problem is I couldn't upgrade any components without also upgrading the psu. Thankfully my friend had a 750W psu and was willing to trade psu's with me since he never planned on upgrading his PC. I would recommend you get at least 600W psu, preferably 650W and make sure to check the psu cultists list to make sure it is at least a tier C, you don't want to get a faulty psu or it could destroy it's self and the rest of your components. One more thing, while the 5600 works fine with the rx 6600, I am getting bottlenecked quite a bit by the gpu, so if you can afford it, upgrading to a 6650XT or 6700XT could really get you a lot more frames. Hope this helps

[@ajax1472]

​@@keylime6what does that mean? So rx 6600 isn't good with 5 5600? I'm thinking about getting that, bottleneck means lagging in this context?

[@keylime6]

@@ajax1472 It works fine, especially for more cpu intensive games like Fortnite, Minecraft, etc. if you play detailed single player games though, the gpu might lag behind a bit. My recommendation would be that if you mostly play esports games or Minecraft, it’s perfect. If you play more gpu intense games, you should upgrade the gpu. If you want brand new, you could get an Rx 6650XT, or Rx 7600, and if you want to buy used, you might be able to find some good deals on a 6700XT. Oh yeah, and make sure to get at least a 650W power supply

[@NE0N0W0]

Recently built a fairly similar build, went with a Ryzen 5 5600G (used the igpu for a while) with a RX 6650 XT. Runs perfectly and i dont really mind the lower RTX performance on amd cards bc i just use RTX for screenshots anyway.

[@mond33zy]

Exactly same. All I need is good frames at 1080p for now as thats what my monitor is. RTX I try out on some games but don't need at all right now.

[@masamune_plays]

but due to that processor you would not be able to use its full potential as its on support pci gen 3

Great for a first build! I'm doing a similar one for my girlfriend using the PowerColor Fighter 6600 and everything is white instead of black lol but yeah good job!

Hey dude how long do you think this 5600+6600 combo would relevant, 3-4 years? I want this for light gaming and some video editing

[@providencelaw]

Looks good for the most part. Unfortunately your PSU is a bomb (tier F on the PSU tier list) and is actually quite dangerous due to multiple malfunctioning safety protections and overall terrible performance. I'd recommend replacing that immediately.

[@mond33zy]

I actually JUST swapped it out for an nzxt c850 psu. Probably still not the best option but since it was nzxt branded I went full send :D

[@providencelaw]

@@mond33zy The C850 is a great unit. Assuming you're talking about the one that's Gold rated, it's tier A on the PSU tier list. Good pick!

[@ajax1472]

​​@@providencelawhi can you suggest a pc build for around 800$

[@bsoda69]

Next time you build a PC, show all the cable information and don't skip (some reviewers almost always skipped that part, which that part is most important for new PC builders, don't be like that), if your video is longer it is fine for the sake of the information you give, even me, I watched your video until 10:30, like what is that cable name and where to put it in.. most people who don't know how to build a PC have no idea which cable should use and where to plug (cable management) overall it is great, some notes: - Using the X method for CPU paste is much more effective - RAM 32GB is NICE, but much more efficient with x2 16GB instead of x4 8GB Good job! 👍👍

Pc parts is expensive where I'm from. Paired a 6600 with a 4790 with 20gb ram and the loss in performance is worth the savings for the settings and framerate I play on.

That's a fine 1080p build. Sometimes when building a PC it helps to have your mobo & GPU be from the same brand. Prevents having additional programs that contradict each other and bloatware that will slow things down. Otherwise good job.

[@AA-sw6qs]

i dont think the cpu cooler is needed at all. but it does fit well.

[@kingal89]

Good build. Everyone has opinions on parts. They are clowns. If it works and doesn't overheat it is good. I guarantee I could poke holes in all the haters builds. For a first build you did a great job. My comment on the actual build is id of it your thermal paste more center. It looks a little off center to me. I'd use a tad bit more as well but overall people make too much of a big deal about thermal paste so I won't.

Is 500W PSU enough? I plan to build Ryzen 5 5600G with RX 6650XT, and it is suggested to use a 650W. Nice Build Btw

[@s.a.sproductions5344]

Thats more than enough. They'll tell you more than you actually need, but better be safe than sorry.

[@mond33zy]

Yes it will be plenty. I do recommend though if you plan to upgrade your gpu down the line that your psu come with two pcie 6+2 cables instead of one. That way if you get a card with 16 pin power connector you can safely use both instead of one with the daisy chain

[@flintfrommother3gaming]

Do not cheap out on your PSU and Wattage and that's it. If it's a 500W from an actual reliable vendor then it's PROBABLY ok but you shouldn't cheap out on your PSU at all, there is a reason they say 650W is suggested. Less pressure on your PSU the better.

[@williamlaude1814]

The PSU I'll be using is the FSP HGD 650W Gold, then an Asus prime b550 with wifi, then dual xpg spectrix d50 3200MHz, then for the m.2 nvme maybe a samsung 980, then some ARGB fans maybe 5 pieces then a tower cooler

OK - I built a B450 Tomohawk Max II 5600X 32GB DDR4... DO NOT enable any of the on board "lets get a great cpu" stuff.... It killed my system. Go slowly, learn carefully. Manually tune each bit - the on board presets roast your CPU and GPU. Switch them off and manually, incrementally upgrade. I love MSI - Used them for years. But the B450 - as great as it is.... the Bios sucks. At least at power application level. Just dont apply anything at Bios level and you should be fine. I run my B450 with a Ryzen 5600X, 32GB DDR4..... it can rain all day.

Yes you will need thermal paste for all coolers. From what I know, if you buy a cpu that comes with a cooler, then you don't need to buy thermal paste because it is already on there.
